Hades 2 Path of Stars Guide
The Path of Stars is like a special map in a game where you can make your character stronger. It helps you improve your special abilities, called Gifts of the Moons. On this map, you have different choices to make your abilities better. Some choices make your attacks stronger, while others make your powers last longer.
How many choices you have depends on how far the moon is in the sky. By picking the right upgrades on the Path of Stars, you can make your character much stronger. You can choose upgrades that fit how you like to play the game, making your character even more powerful and helping you beat tougher enemies.
Moon Boons Gift
The Gifts of the Moon are special powers in Hades 2 that you can use in battles. Each power can only be used once you've collected enough Magick during fights. Once you've gathered enough, you can activate these powers by pressing the right trigger button.
Depending on your progress in the game, each power will have a different Moonglow, which changes how you can upgrade them on the Path of Stars. However, the Moonglow changes each time you start a new game. Here's a table showing the different gifts of the Moon and what they do:
| Boon Name | Description | Ready After |
| Phase Shift | Your Hex makes everything else move 80% slower for 5 seconds. | 150 Magick |
| Lunar Ray | Your Hex fires a beam that deals up to 1200 damage over 3 seconds. | 120 Magick |
| Twilight Curse | Your Hex launches a seeking projectile that inflicts Morph on up to 10 susceptible foes. | 140 Magick |
| Dark Side | Your Hex turns you into an Impervious living nightmare with her own abilities for 5 Sec. | 90 Magick |
| Wolf Howl | Your Hex makes you rise up then crash down in the target area for 200 damage. | 80 Magick |
| Total Eclipse | Your Hex blasts the target area for 1000 damage after 4 sec. | 200 Magick |
| Moon Water | Your Hex restores 25 Hearts up to 3 times, which reset whenever you use Fountains. | 70 Magick |
| Night Bloom | Your Hex raises 1 random slain foe from this Encounter to fight for you for 12 sec. | 100 Magick |
Moonglow
In Hades 2, each skill comes with a special Moonglow that affects how you can upgrade it on the Path of Stars. Here's what each Moonglow does:
- Full Moonglow: This Moonglow gives the skill the most potential, allowing it to gain +2 upgrades on the Path of Stars.
- Half Moonglow: With this Moonglow, the skill has greater potential and gains +1 upgrade on the Path of Stars.
- Crescent Moonglow: This Moonglow doesn't offer any special bonuses, so you'll have to rely on the natural power of the Moon for your skill.
Hades 2
Hades II is a new video game made by Supergiant Games, the same people who made the first Hades game. It's like an action-packed adventure where you play as Melinoë, who is Zagreus's sister from the first game. In Hades II, Melinoë is on a mission to defeat Chronos, the Titan of Time, with help from other powerful gods.
